Tight Spaces...

    Does be in a tight spot or being crowded freak you out in any way.

    I myself don't mind being in a crowd too much, but tight spaces totally freak me out. I just cannot handle it.

    In other words, in case you couldn't figured it out, are you in any way claustrophobic?
     
    I have a disliking for both, but wouldn't call myself claustrophobic. However, if at any time the enclosed space becomes difficult to breather in, that's when I start to panic a bit (which is of course totally counterproductive D:)
     
    I don't mind tight spaces but I don't like being in a crowd. There is something about a group of people that kinda scares me. At football it isn't bad but on the streets I hate it. I prefer to go alone.
     
    Oh yeah, I'm pretty claustrophobic. I freak out like woah if I'm stuck in an enclosed space of any kind, especially a tunnel or something.

    I don't know, just something about not knowing if I can get out or not doesn't settle with me :/
     
    Yes, i hate being in crowds.. but i've been in INCREDIBLY tight places where you struggle to breath in, and sometimes i get panicy. A bit.
     
    I'm pretty okay with tight spaces. :\ I mean, if you're there for a long while, it can get irritating or frustrating, but otherwise I've never found it to be a big deal. Crowds are the same way. I don't really care.
     
    Tight spaces — Don't care, so long as I can breathe easily enough.
    Large crowds — I'm an introvert, so it speaks for itself really. I'm much happier with one person than a group of them.
     
    Tight spaces don't bother me at all. I actually quite like them. They're... cozy.

    Crowds, on the other hand, tend to send me into antisocial fits of "I hate everyone ugh why does the world have so many goddamn people D:".
     
    I'm not claustrophobic at all. I can be put into the tightest of spaces and my body won't start to convulse or anything.

    It just doesn't bug me at all.
     
    Tight spaces are just amazing. I feel so comfortable in them for some reason, like, I could fall asleep or get cozy in one. For large crowds, it really depends on the type of people who are in them. If I'm comfortable around them, then I love them and I live for them, but if I'm not, I'll get really uncomfortable. Otherwise, I would make the worst claustrophobic person ever. XD;
     
    I have mixed feelings about tight spaces. If I'm alone in a tight space, I get really paranoid and suddenly feel at a little oxygen-deprived. However, if I'm with someone else, it's actually quite comfortable, especially on cold nights. ;)
     
    THe only time I get uncomfortable in tight spots is if I'm stuck there for a prolonged amount of time. (like over 30 min.) otherwise I'm ok with them.
    I remember this one time at summer camp, they took us spelunking/ caving and in order to proceed through the cave we had to go through this section of cave that was just big enough to go through lying on your back. they whimsically named it the birth canal.
     
    Nah, I am not really claustrophobic. And well, I never get crowded, so I don't really know whether I dislike it. But being in crowds only bothers me due to lack of movement. But I suppose, working in a Cinema is no place to get like that. XD
     
    It depends on my position, really. While I can tolerate being crowded in tight spaces while I'm sitting down or standing up, I would usually feel horribly uncomfortable if I were say...kneeling for a long time without being able to move. I had to cope with doing that once for a whole 40 minutes. It almost killed my kneecaps. D:

    But otherwise, I don't really have a problem with being crowded, sometimes I find it cozy since the atmosphere is usually cold and warmth emits from other people.
     
    Small areas are not a bother to me or have they ever, so I wouldn't say that I have a phobia because of it. I do tend to get nervous when people stand up on tables or whatever and they are near me.
     
    I'm only fine with crowded areas as long as I have my friends with me, but if I'm the only person in a large crowd, I'd be extremely scared. I've never been a tall person, so in crowds, I tend to get pushed around because of my small size. >.< And I don't like being in a confined space unless, yet again, I have friends with me. I guess, its extremely frightening to be alone anywhere, but being in a place with only four walls just makes it worse.
     
    Not really, unless it was like a Children of Bodom concert my friends went to... they said that it was so packed, they were even stepping on people, and my one friend lost his shoe. XD;
     
    I can take a crowd, I mean it's just people.... oh my wallet is gone! >0
    XD

    But as for tight places... I can't stand them. I don't have a prob with like an elevator, or even a closet, but if it's like under the bed, or something like a straight jacket then I get freaked out really really bad (I feel like I can't breath). It's not being tight so much as it is me feeling like I can't move.
     
    I'm fine with tight spaces, my mother not so much, but I'm fine with them. Yeah, As Erica said if it's for a long amount of time, it's pretty much a no due to the possible frustration it can cause. XD So yeah, I can handle tight spaces, sometimes I dislike tight spaces, meh depends. I pretty much don't care.
